GIRARD, Ohio - The wrong mix of pool chemicals caused a minor explosion in one Girard neighborhood on Sunday.

Hazmat was called out to a home on Lawrence Avenue.

Authorities on the scene would not say what the chemicals were, but there was a strong odor of chlorine in the air and it was so bad that firefighters had to wear masks to inspect the home.

 

An elderly woman was taken to the hospital for precautionary reasons.
